The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Atlanta Falcons open the NFL regular season Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we look at Steelers vs. Falcons odds from BetMGM Sportsbook before making our expert NFL picks and predictions later in the week.
The Steelers have a new look, as veteran Russell Wilson beat out Justin Fields for the starting QB job. After a 10-win season with a turnstile at quarterback last season, Pittsburgh is looking for a little more stability.
Against the NFC in 2023, the Steelers were 3-2 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) in 5 games. The Under had a 3-2 edge in 5 games against NFC foes.
For the Falcons, they were just 7-10 last season, so they made some big moves. Atlanta inked QB Kirk Cousins to a lucrative contract, while adding WR Darnell Mooney to help WR Drake London and TE Kyle Pitts in the pass game. The Falcons look like they could have an explosive offense in 2024.
The Falcons were 3-2 SU against AFC teams in 2023, while going 2-3 ATS. As far as the total is concerned, the Under went 4-1 in the 5 games vs. AFC.
Moneyline (ML): Steelers +130 (bet $100 to win $130) | Falcons -155 (bet $155 to win $100)
Against the spread (ATS): Steelers +3 (-115) | Falcons -3 (-105)
Over/Under (O/U): 42.5 (O: -110 | U: -110)
